According to Ken Rosenthal, the Cincinnati Reds may finally be moving long-time second baseman Brandon Phillips to another team:
Source: Phillips trade from #Reds to #Braves expected to be done tomorrow. CIN will pay most of Phillips’ $14M salary in 2017, save some $$.

Phillips has played second base for the Reds for more than a decade now (2006-2016). And in that role, he became a three-time All-Star, while winning one Silver Slugger award, and four Gold Gloves.

In fact, he’s such a good defender, that he can get players out without even holding onto the ball … or so Juan Uribe thinks:
Those are exactly the sorts of shenanigans for which this website was made. I mean, look at Uribe’s reaction:
Well done, Mr. Phillips. Keep up the no-good.
As for Uribe, it could have been worse: Phillips could have used his butt to block your slide at second base.
